    Can any artists make me a specific item for my mod?

    I think one of the best things about F2 is it doesn't take itself too seriously -- I can point to a hundred little things from the "pop culture" reference in the Broken Hills, to the Goonie's reference down the well in Modoc (and the whole lassie ripoff "Is it aliens? No? Maybe something else...

    Can any artists make me a specific item for my mod?

    Oh, come on. Because you can heal a broken bone overnight. And if you get shot up, you can inject yourself with a drug (stimpack) that cures bullet wounds. And when you go to the grocery store, items just spawn somewhere in a foot locker you can't see. ...I hope you seriously weren't...

    Tip for scripters

    Heh it might be a flaw, but I've always programmed in pico or notepad. =) I checked out FSE and you might very well be right. Does it have a debugger? I think it was when I had several <maps> in a <town> and I was using variables that needed to propagate to all the maps that I defined it in...

    Can any artists make me a specific item for my mod?

    Right now I'm knee-deep in mapping and scripting, and it would be a huge help. Basically I need a pair of brahmin testicles. No, really. The quest is: a farmer is trying to get his two brahmin to mate. If you do a science the bull you realize he's actually a steer. If you go down the...

    How do I add/change music to the maps?

    I did a search of this forum with "music" and got no hits. I also searched the mapper docks and didn't find anything, and browsed through master.dat (SFX and speech was there, but not music) Basically I'm just looking for a quick and easy way to change the "music" loop for a given map...

    Tip for scripters

    This might save you 30 min of investigation... I'm a newbie myself at F2 modding so some of the pros feel free to smack me down. Also, please add to this list if I left something out. So, if you want to make a new script for a critter, you potentially have to edit: Global.h...

    editor question -- finding a specific tile need help!

    a lot of the art is broken up in the tile set For example, I'm trying to make a cave. Yeah, I know it would be easier to simply load a cave map and edit that but I don't have that option because the map is 3/4 of the way done =) Basically, is there any way to load a map that's already done...

    Starting first Fallout2 mod...

    I'm using the same overview map (not sure how to change that anyway) with different cities/local maps. The fiction is the "coast" is merely the flooded colorado river (I know, I know... I'm going to have a bit where the hero goes "Hey... this looks familiar. You ever get the feeling God is...

    Starting first Fallout2 mod...

    I just took apart enough of the master.dat to figure out how the hell the game is put together. Edited some dialog, played with some scripts yadda yadda. Basically my mod will take place about 20 years after F2. The hero is Cassidy's kid who goes to Texas to figure out what happened to dad...

    Looking for a good tutorial

    Okay. I found everything I was looking for in master.dat (sorry, sorry... I'm a newbie at fallout2 modding) So let me see if I got this straight... For my mod I need to make a new master.dat where i insert compiled scripts in a .int format that reference the .msgs (same file name) using...

    Looking for a good tutorial

    I'm going to get started on a fallout2 mod (as a modder who loves fallout2, NO idea why I haven't done this sooner), and I familiarized myself with the mapper. I'm looking for a good tut on how to place cities, and how to change the text for dialogue nodes (I can't find em!), and generally...
